A Liverpool bouncer has denied GBH after a man was left with a fractured skull and a bleed on the brain.

Doorman David Stephen French, 30, appeared at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court today where he pleaded not guilty to inflicting grievous bodily harm without intent.

French, of Fairbank Street in Wavertree, is alleged to have attacked Thomas Sljivic outside the Lime Kiln bar in Fleet Street, Liverpool city centre, on April 17 last year.

Mr Sljivic was left with a fractured skull, a bleed on the brain and hearing loss after the incident.

Hannah Griffiths, prosecuting, suggested the case was too serious to be dealt with by the lower courts.

The magistrates agreed and passed the case to Liverpool Crown Court where French is next due to appear on March 8.
